- Here are my 25 favorite sequels that I own in my collection, however, I completely had a brain fart and forgot Indiana Jones, and the last Crusade, which definitely should’ve been in the top 10 🤬
Maverick was a decent film but I much prefer Top Gun, but it was a good sequel.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 I absolutely loved top gun back in the 80s saw it at least a dozen times in the theater. But that new one blew me away.
@@jimtatro6550 It didn't blow me away and there's a good reason and that's because Kelly McGillis wasn't in it. Tom Cruise looks like he's in his late 30s at 60 and Kelly looks like she's 105 sadly, she didn't age well. ,My dream was shattered lol.
Jim,you mean "pre-quels"?
I would have to include Butch and Sundance: The Early Years 🤣👍
I might have to give the Evil Dead 2 another go as I can't remember the film but I do remember that one of them was very scary as a kid. And if my memory servers me correctly, Michael Jacksons Thriller which scared the pants off of me was basically a copy of the Evil Dead I think.
Never seen The Raid or the sequel which is sad because I loved those type of flicks as a kid being made into Bruce Lee and Van Dam.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 the original evil dead is the scary one, part two is half or half comedy and army of darkness is pure comedy. If you like martial art action movies I cannot recommend the two raid movies enough
@@jimtatro6550 Okay, the original Evil Dead, I'll have a look at the trailer to jog my memory of that film.
Now that I'm older I'm not much into martial arts movies but I do like a few Jason Statham movies. Big Trouble in Little China is my all time favourite, it has great comedy scenes and a character that every man would want to be Mr. Jack Burton. The Chinese demonic martial artists were so scary at the time, I got that Dart Vader vibe from them with their special powers. I will have to watch those Raid movies now, you've created an itch that i can't reach so they're a must to view over the week. Thanks. I love thrillers, crime and really good horror movies. I gave up on trying to find good modern horror movies as I just can't relate to them for some reason. Maybe is because a lot of them are arty farty which I detest
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 If you want a couple of horror, movies that are just plain fun, not necessarily scary, I would recommend ready or not, and no one lives
Watch The Taking if you haven't seen it and make sure you wear a diaper lol. It's really up there with REC but far more scares. I found it really scary and remember, I'm not really into that style of film but it really got to me like REC did.
@@jimtatro6550 I've seen Ready or Not thank you. It was mildly entertaining, a decent film. I'm going to watch "No One LIves" on Movies7 later thanks. It's got a high enough rating of 7.42 out of 10.
Thanks, if you know of any really good modern horrors or thrillers in general, just message me anytime buddy as you'd never know if I've seen the films you've viewed or not. That's why I watch your channel as there's a chance I might have missed a really good film and you've seen it and then turned me on to it.
I love your choice. and aliens is such a cool movie
Thanks Brian!!!👍
I hated the Shinning and I couldn't get into Doctor Sleep so I'll might have to try and give that film another go to see why I disliked it so much. I might even try watch the Shinning again too.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 I admire the shining more than I enjoy it however, I really really do like Dr. sleep especially the Director cut
Dawn of the Dead the best Horror movie every made in your opinion. Okay, I'll have to make time to watch that film again but for me, I'm not sure if I can say that these are the greatest horror films ever made but I'll give you a mention of the one's that come to memory for me.
The Exorcist I and III are the best possession flicks I've ever seen. I also think Jeepers Creepers I and II are masterpieces being the best monster flicks this century. Annabelle Creation scared the pants off of me and I thought Drag me to Hell was brilliantly done. Also there were lots of brilliant b - movies from the 70s that I can list for you sometime. I love the films where it's God against Satan, good against evil. Like the Omen franchise is one of the best franchises for me even if the sequels weren't as good as the first, they were still very well done and completely different to the first.
The Ninth Gate is a classic for me, it was very well done. Rosemary's
Baby shocked everyone when it came out as did the Exorcist and The Omen and I remember family members saying not to watch it or you'll be cursed. That didn't go well with me as I was a bed wetter up to the age of 11, so those films really drained the lizard so to speak. lol.
The best Werewolf movie for me was An American Werewolf in London which meant plenty of Nightmares for me and the scariest book I've ever read about werewolves is called The Wolfen.
I also remember that the Amityville and the Poltergeist had a massive affect on me too but I was very young when I watched these film and it was usually because my grandmother fell asleep...because she would have never let me watching those kind of films being so young and all. (Rec) 2007 is a very well made hand cam type Horror if you haven't seen it.
The Taking is another brilliant hand held docu style film like Rec as I don't normally like these types of hand held films but those two are the best for me.
Race with the Devil and The Wicker Man are another two classics from the 70s along with films like The Devil Rides Out and The Brotherhood of Satan and the Devils Claw.
Deliver us from Evil with Eric Bana along with The Grudge and The Ring are honourable mentions. You can't go wrong with any of those films.
Devil 2010 is one I had to add as form 2010, it's a ride and takes place in an elevator, it's awesome.
You mentioned some great titles, I own the REC boxset from Scream Factory, and absolutely loved the original
@@jimtatro6550 Great man, I only saw one of the films, I didn't even know there was more than one. I guess I saw the original, it was in Spanish I think if my memory serves me correctly. I almost pooped my pants at the end of the film.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403there are 4 films in total, Rec2 is actually the best one.👍
@@jimtatro6550 Just shows how much my heads been in the sand. I might watch REC 2 tonight as I've never seen it. Thanks for letting me know.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 the sequel picks up right where the first one ended. It’s a balls out thrill ride.
Dart Vader has to be the scariest evil villain as far as sci fi movies go but I also lived The Thing, The first two Predator movies and The series called "V" from the 80s. Could never really get in to the Alien franchise but id did like the Predator v Alien franchise movies. There was a series made recently about Obi Wan which has some amazing modern Dart Vader scenes, it's a brilliant series for me, I was really impressed with it all.
The Thing will DEFINITELY be on the remake list
@@jimtatro6550 Kurt Russel is another one of my hero actors, I thought he had amazing character, I left him put of my above list in one of my responses to you as I forgot him. Charles Bronson and John Wayne I loved too from back in the day. The Thing is a classic but I have to add that I hated Jack Nicholson lol, he has a face that every man would love to hit. lol.
Sean Penn is anther great modern actor who's now old lol. Gary Oldman and Christopher Walken and Rutger Hauer.
I love most of the Rambo films accept the last one where he's very old in it and it really tells but it's still a decent enough film, it's not awful. Loved all of the Dirty Harry sequels, and of course some are weaker than the others but I'd love to see a good remake of them all with a really good fitting actor to play the Dirty Harry character. And I think Scott Eastwood could do it, as he does look like a young Clint and I would be delighted if they went real 70s retro with the look of the film. Friday the 13th and Freddy Crugar terrified me when I was in my early teens in the 80s but tried to watch those films as a mature adult and they didn't stand the test of time. But, they were brilliant if you'd ask my younger self if that makes sense. I do remember loving Wesley Snipes in Blade Runner as a teenager, but Lethal Weapon with Mel Gibson and Danyy Glover will always be some of the best stand out action, crime thrillers for me in the history of those types of films.
Die Hard is a classic and very well done, can't remember if I've seen the 3rd one so might give it a go during the week. Loved the Super man with Gene Hackman as a kid, it's a classic for sure.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 I totally agree with you about the last Rambo movie, it was pretty bad. As far as remaking the dirty Harry movies I don’t know how I feel about that. I generally don’t like remakes unless they bring something new to the table.
@@jimtatro6550 Yes, and another reason would be that there's not to many actors now that I can buy into, Modern actors just lack that character that I'm looking for.
It's common knowledge that the man that goes to see a film wants to come out of that movie wishing he was that lead character. I don't get that today and Clint had it in spades as did Sly, Mel and McQueen. Matt Dillon and Matt Damon are two of the most modern actors that I like but they've nothing on the above actors that I mentioned.
@@jimtatro6550 Yeah, Sly is getting old now, the magic has gone but not completely but he should think about packing the acting in and focusing more on writing and directing as he's great at those things as is Clilnt.
Whatever you saw in Blade Runner 2049 that was good, please send it to my brain friend as I thought it was awful. I call it the Brown Bore because of the colour of the move the whole way through. For me, it was a huge let down but I['m glad you got something out of it, and maybe I need to try watch it again sometime.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 to me Blade Runner 2049 was just a pleasant surprise. I had very low expectations for it.
@@jimtatro6550 I felt browned off after watching 60 minutes of it, and then I turned it off and my natural colour came back again. It was best for my health that I stopped watching it. That's all I can remember about the film as it was like a slow brown poo working it's way down my toilet. I'm not one for slow burns mate, I might try watch it again to see if I missed anything but from memory, it was painful.
Glad you got something out of it though, each to his own.
@@todareistodomyfoot8403 that’s the great thing about movies in general, they affect everyone differently like all art.
Phantasm II blew me away when I finally saw it. I took the day off to see Blade Runner 2049 and I was a little unsatisfied- I have it and definitely need to rewatch it. Dr Sleep also blew me away - I’d much rather rewatch it than the Shining! Great list Jim
I cannot believe I forgot Last Crusade, 40 years of THC is finally affecting my brain 🤣
@@jimtatro6550 😂 Hearing you laugh was the best part.
@@mr.danandhorror4230 you know me, Dan, I always strive to be such a professional😮💨🤣
